Non-Entry as I broke the rules and used some acapellas
For the hook, I sampled parts of 2 classic hip-hop tracks which were originally produced by Dilla. I used parts of A Tribe Called Quest - 1nce Again, and De La Soul - Stakes is High.
I also used an acapella of another classic Dilla-produced track, Pharcyde - Runnin'. I used 2 verses and the chorus, so effectively it's a Runnin' remix, with various other bits thrown-in in between. Such as small samples taken from interviews from various artist talking about Dilla. The likes of Busta Rhymes, Kanye West and Erykah Badu. Also sampled parts from a J Dilla interview at the end of the track/medley.
For the music I only sampled 'tape 6' from Bleep's sample pack. Thanks for that man! Used outside drums, but every other sound was formed from the tape 6 sample, including the bass.
Hope you enjoy. I didn't intend to make such a long track, it just ended up that way. Although not quite in Yoni Den territory
Looking forward to hearing what everyone brings this week!

How we all doing people?
I Cooked up another little jam this afternoon, same sort of thing, Couple of loops and chops,
I messed around with the same samples, but wanted to try something different with the drums.
multiple compressors. doing small things rather than one working a lot. Something I watched in a tutorial.

Had no freakin time until this early evening...but how could I miss this round. Did all of this in a one-take manner. Lock me in with those samples and give me a week off, I wanna do so much more right now!

Hey All, Congrats Bleep and thanks for the samples. I think I will have to return to those samples in the future if I have any sense but that is debatable (me having sense that is). Saluting one of the greatest this week. I have no aspirations of sounding like Dilla because that would be hopeless for me quantized or not. I do aspire to always be creating like he was famously known to do. Creating and evolving is where it is at. I am always excited to see what I can do with the samples and rules each week. I also think the rules are where it is at so go for it beat battle champs and make us all stretch.
Peace, Hugh
